THOMAS TURNER
A LIGHTWEIGHT 12-BORE BOXLOCK NON-EJECTOR GUN, NO. 5908
28-inch damascus barrels with 2 1/2-inch chambers about 1/4 and 1/2 choke borings, doll's head extension, the frame and patent top lever with fine scroll engraving and retaining much original hardening colour, 14 3/4-inch well figured lightweight cut-away stock including 3/4-inch extension, 6lb. 3oz., nitro re-proof
The gun is a classic example of a Turner lightweight, with its especially short fore-end and lightweight cut-away stock. It retains much of its original finish and appears relatively little used. |
